If the American people's vote was really the determining factor in who was elected, Rick Perry may not have a shot, but since he's backed by the world's elite then I don't see how he loses.
Goddamn right Ron Paul is our only hope... The only problem is that what Ron Paul stands for is the exact opposite of the offshore banking cartel that really runs this country. Anyone that disputes this needs to do their research on the creation of the Federal Reserve and on who really funded every major world war, Hitler's Third Reich, etc. I'll give you a hint - it's the same people that are in charge today. Do a Google search on Prescott Bush (Dubya's Grandfather) and read about the seizure of his assets under the "Trading with the Enemy Act".
Pretty scary stuff if you ask me.
